    Look around, you might be able to get one new from OS cheaper.
    I say might as I havn't checked.

    You could even try your local auto electricians...
    Would suck if you get one from a wreckers and it ends up dying on you down the track.

    $790 hey
    Based on that I'd say the wrecker wants about $435 (55%)
    Online, including delivery, should be around $160 - $200 (20%-25%)

    That's my experience with parts lately.
